now that i think about it .. i never actually played against PL ever since i switched to dota 2..

and i never used PL just because i don't like the PL model in dota .. wc3 PL looks awesome and feels awesome to use

no, vlads is build by people that watch progames, and dont understand that the pros build vlads on PL for a special reason.
its not like its a good itemchoice in general, but if you feel like you need an early contribution to the teamfight, then vladmirs isnt the worst choice to make.

i used to buy vanguard on PL though. it is EXTREMELY safe, but you get online later.
you can tank junglecreeps without using doppelwalk at every camp also.
you will never go back to base with vanguard.

it's actually the worst item to get for early teamfights o_o

buy vlads if you are afk~farming + splitpushing. it gives you the sustain you need after the tranqs nerf.

if you want early fight contributions, go for treads -> drums + wand. stand back and spam lance.

uhm almost everyone i know builds vlads on melee heroes even a few years ago

and some of them don't even know progaming exists

I actually fully agree with Aui and thats always the way i played PL, you NEED 8 illusions at 11. Seriously. Juxtapose is vital to max 2nd. Dopple is fine at 1

I can actually see the vanguard need nowdays, you're so squishy and lacking any sustained farming ability early, and by getting the radiance you up your farm speed significantly

but you know i only have like a 75% wr on pl whatever

You can't do a yasha diffu heart build anymore, you have to get tankier earlier.

Here it is, note i have played significantly less PL since his illusions were nerfed (hero totally crap since then), Have been preferring ES and Mirana since then.

i am not a windrunner authority.

Wow. You are one dedicated PL picker.

When do you buy threads and when do you buy tranquil ? do you buy midas pre-10 minutes or after you brought starting items like threads and etc ?

I bought tranquil before the change, never buy them now, totally worthless.

Things like midas before treads or vice versa are based off of gamestate. Generally you should get boots before midas, finish treads if you're under pressure

never go blindly go midas tho. if you have freefarm or trilane vs 1 offlane then go midas, if not then aim for early fighting
